Is there anyway to flash another ROM over top this one with having to ODIN? I don't have a data cable
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
How do you charge your phone?

No, but I haven't tryed. But why would anyone want a different ROM?

I love the ICS ROMs, but need GPS to work reliably. After 1.5 years, I finally have a reliable GPS working with v7.1 and YAGGF (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1370910). It locks instaneously.

Looking forward to v7 with the GPS. If that really works, I'm installing this ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] shinglers:
How do you charge your phone? my wall charger is also my USB data cable!
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
Yes you can, BUT it will have to be a CM based ROM like MIUI ROM... I go back and forth from this to MIUI with out a problem
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/22/google-disables-contact-sync-in-facebook-for-android-only-nexus/

since the ICS os is on a lead device, ie. the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, then is stands to reason, that the contact sync will never work.
[Vibrant Android Development] DataGov:
I am on v6 with the latest nightly build kernel. Today, I tried to enable Viber. I had it installed a few days ago but hadn't enabled it. When I did, it locked up my phone and when I tried to reboot, it went into an endless boot loop. Nothing restored it. Had to go back to a Nandroid restore from a backup I luckily made just a couple of days ago.

Not sure what Viber does, but maybe its accessing voice code in the kernel. Just FYI.
[Vibrant Android Development] a2296455:
Neo, please consider joining the CM9 dev team, I'm sure they'd love your work!

Also I hope you can work with the GPS guy to bring his GPS solution to the ROM! This should be the official rom of the vibrant! WTG!

[Vibrant Android Development] mike21pr:
hello. quick question, has the voice call issues been fixed or is there progress on it? i mean the bug that makes the callers not hear you well that you need to do the mute/unmute workaround

sorry for my ignorance if its been fixed and i missed something
[Vibrant Android Development] Dmkjr:
Many, including myself, have not experienced this problem. I'm currently running V6.

Hey neo, if and when you have time, I'd like to talk to you about making some mods for your ICS build. (Theme wise.)

Maybe different colors.

Accurate Battery mods. (1-100)

Let me know! I've got three weeks off school, need something to do.
[Vibrant Android Development] asdf916:
i'm a fan of the battery mod you posted (numbers WITHIN the battery icon). it makes it easier to quickly distinguish between the battery % vs. the time.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Yeah, you may do that I will link your topic in the OP.

Let me know which files you need in the PM.
[Vibrant Android Development] daohoa:

I wish he stopped announcing when a new build is coming out. Makes me come here every hour instead of just once a day :\
[Vibrant Android Development] q426669:
I both love and hate the announcement. On one hand, at least I know that I shouldn't flash 6.5 right now...on the other hand, I too now check every hour for it...lol

Neo I hope you know that you are holding the whole vibrant community on your shoulders. Maybe of us had given up if not for your support. We really appreciate what your doing so we don't have to buy another phone!

Long live Neo. He rocks my socks off!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Could not agree more.
[Vibrant Android Development] Jasonhunterx:
Some great shoulders to be on!
[Vibrant Android Development] mksin11:
totally agree. lol keeps me in believing on my vibrant compared to other new phones.
[Vibrant Android Development] samwest39:
a few days ago this rom was in the news it is that popular
[Vibrant Android Development] accordex:
This sucks..

I have a GS2 sitting in front of me right now, ordered it, now I'm having second thoughts...there is like 2 roms for it!!??...both 2.3..no ics/miui....after being on miui for so long, I feel like I just paid 250 to go back to the ugly ass 2.3 (stock) interface...

If I open/use it the paper with it says I electronically sign the 2yr agreement. If not I can send it back and this never happened...lol what do I do!? Or can anyone tell me if they've opened a phone and sent it back within the 20 days and got them to change everything back? I was expired contract, bought this to renew contract...

Yeah...not to off topic or anything :)
[Vibrant Android Development] a2296455:
Will this ROM ever showup on ROM Manager?
[Vibrant Android Development] Smartassassin:
that is a tough choice. I have had to refrain from getting the sole. I am holding out for the s3

[Vibrant Android Development] Exel:
Neo, PM sent. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
T-Mo estimates their SGS2 ICS update between January and March.
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
Are you using htis yourself on this rom?

I ask because I have tried setting custom ringtones and notifications tones with both "rings extended" and "tonepicker."

It works until I reboot, then no sounds, and settings FCs when I tried to go into the sounds section.

Had this happen with both above apps in versions 5, 6 and 6.5.

I coped by copying the files into system/media/audio/ringtones and selected them as normal, but if that app works when the others did not, it would make my life easier when v7 drops.

So are you actually using it on this rom, and if so, you can confirm the above does not occur?
[Vibrant Android Development] Lieu10ant:
wtf?

ever since the G1 days, all you had to do was put your .mp3 files in these directories you create......

/sdcard/media/audio/alarms

/sdcard/media/audio/notifications

/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones
[Vibrant Android Development] accordex:
Do you think that, once that happens, there will be roms available without all the "samsung" in them? Or will it be the same crap where gps won't work, or video cam or 911 or whatever else? Or is it pretty much guranteed that once it does come out the devs can strip it? Honestly I love my vib..but I need gps...the bigger screen/cpu and faster dl speeds I could give a ****...it's fast enough as it is...
[Vibrant Android Development] Pielvrx:
No way, touch pal is not and cannot be faster or better. the new Android keyboard is awesome, but i keep coming back to Swype

That's translates to an update by November
[Vibrant Android Development] toxicbakery:
Thanks for the hard work on this. Can't wait to see GPS working in v7 :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] kewlkid123:
Just like they said the vibrant would get froyo back in last December, we all know how that turned out
[Vibrant Android Development] ironlood:
I don't think that Neo is responsible Netflix
[Vibrant Android Development] MailenJokerbell:
Suuuuure darling, keep on believin'
[Vibrant Android Development] mksin11:
thanks ill try that. i came from a blackberry so i wouldnt know. i had this phone for about 6 months and i never had a problem with music as a ringtone except this rom. i didnt know. thanks though
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
well ya gotta remember that with the litigation with Apfail, over touchwiz, it is taking a while to put out the updates, but with tw5 it will be a moot point so the updates should roll out in a fairly timely manner.
[Vibrant Android Development] shinglers:
Works fine for me .....sorry that's dish sling ..Netflix doesn't work
[Vibrant Android Development] orgwizard:
I've never gone back on a whole contract before, but my understanding is that is exactly what that 20 day remorse period is for...so you should be able to send it all back and revert...don't know if it'll take a fight...

just when you call...tell the automated system you want to cancel...that'll usually get you to the customer loyalty departments...that tend to be more helpful and have nice offers...

though I didn't end my contract last time...when I resigned, I did get a vibrant and a defy...and after a few days...compared to the vibrant...the defy was crap...so I sent that back to them...and they gave me a second vibrant for the same reduced price I got the first one. give it a try...won't hurt.

---------- Post added at 07:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:05 PM ----------

agreed...after t-mo and samsung abondoning this device...it's the last one I'll buy...nexus is next for me...and it would be worth you doing the same...

if anything, might consider an htc phone instead, like amaze, as I've heard they have better update track record.
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
well once a phone gets 6 to 8 months old you arent gonna see any updates, manufacturer, not withstanding.

so very glad to see an awesome dev picking up the ball, and running it into the end zone for the td!!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] mksin11:
patiently waiting....
[Vibrant Android Development] alawadhi3000:
Its due to T-Mobile greediness, Our Vibrant didn't get 2.3 because T-Mobile wanted people to upgrade to the 4G Vibrant.

The International Galaxy S i9000 still gets updates, and that's after 18 months of the release.
[Vibrant Android Development] ironlood:
I think we all understand then after 6 to 8 months a phone is outdated and neither the service provider are the manufacturer want to support the phone.

The one thing I think should happen when a phone is no longer supported is a full drop of all available source
[Vibrant Android Development] creeve4:
I wish Google would make this mandatory for any manufacturer that wishes to use android...

There have been and continue to be far too many phones that are plenty capable of running newer Android builds, but have been dropped by manufacturers.

I don't blame the manufacturers for what they do, they are in it for the $$$, but they should at least release driver source code. Doing so would cause minimal revenue loss (90+% of people with Android phones use stock firmware anyway), if anything it could win customer loyalty.
[Vibrant Android Development] subzerold:
Battery drain is crazy! Battery dies while on charger If the phone is on.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Did you guys forget the new google terms that all Android manufacturers and carriers have? 12 months(I think) of updates, then they can do whatever.
[Vibrant Android Development] xtop:
it's 18 months, and so far nobody has signed up for that. it's a pipe dream
[Vibrant Android Development] CTown:
Didn't Samsung release a Froyo build through Kies, was there ever any source for that?
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
never knew that they had to support for 12 mos. thanks for the info.

[Vibrant Android Development] Lieu10ant:
on v6. and no it's not
[Vibrant Android Development] remixfa:
good stuff! :)

running 6.5 for around 10 hrs now. Im surprised at how smooth and stable this thing is concidering there is no real vibrant/galaxyS source rom to work with. Kudos.

I'm assuming we wont see working GPS until we see some sort of official samsung support, as was the case with 2.3 No biggie. I can flip on back to Bionix when I need that.

Great stuff. I cant wait to see what comes down the pipe. :)

Here it is running @ 1.3ghz just for numbers purposes. Not too shabby for a work in progress. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
but if i dont believe, kittens will die!!!! :D

What time is it in Neoland now?
[Vibrant Android Development] MadNosf:
Its like 8 am there now
[Vibrant Android Development] subzerold:
Not all phones are the same so you saying "my phone is not doing that" does NOT mean that my phone isn't as well. I'm sitting here holding my phone, while its plugged up to the wall, every 10 minutes or so it loses 1 percent. Not gains, loses.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Something wrong with datadata partition. I may remove that partition support but performance will remain unaffected for sure. And then uploading!
[Vibrant Android Development] nuwanmw1988:
Its a good question.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
It's nighttime here in the USA, well almost, well atleast here in Texas its 9:07 PM right now and its so DARK. It turns nighttime at like 6 these days here.

convenient that the battery is 69??? I THINK NOT!

[Vibrant Android Development] mattraab:
For some reason TB pro the batch process won't install the apps. I have to individually install like TB free
[Vibrant Android Development] Dmkjr:
What's wrong with the partition? I'm on v6 and haven't experienced a problem with datadata yet.

8am in Neoland and still going strong. Congrats on having the most reviewed and talked about ROM for the Vibrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] samdroid959:
I've tried everything from wiping from front to back, reflashing from odin to stock but to no avial, found out from a poster that I might have a corrupted "ghost file" that my phone was trying to read 24/7 which can cause major battery drainage. So I had to back up my internal via pc and format my sd card, then I transferred all my important files one by one to see if it produced the same problem. And it seems that my manga library which had 200 chapters was causing the problem. So now I'm gonna try to redownload to see if this problem re occurs, but other than that this is a SUPER FREAKING BAD ASS ROM!! Thanks to Neo and company for all the hard work and effort to bring us ICS exclusively to our phones, and to think I was gonna upgrade to the Galaxy S2 now I can save money for the mean time.
[Vibrant Android Development] mksin11:
its 10:17 here guys! ive been waiting since 7! (atleast thats what i consider night)
[Vibrant Android Development] GODCYPH:
Oh Boy! Oh Boy! Oh Boy! :D

As someone else posted above, I have never had a problem with /datadata either. I only have like 85 or so apps, but still. I did change gmail from downloading attachments for the last 30 days automatically... but as we all know, not all vibrants are the same! ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] nuwanmw1988:
Iv never had a problem eirher
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
i dont use gmail or email on my phone at all, so i freeze it with TB lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] AgentFour20:
I think the only people having problems with datadata are people who are not formatting /system before installing . I had problems when I first installed but I reinstalled again but formated /system in recovery and all was fine .
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
I formatted and had the issue.

So no.
[Vibrant Android Development] orgwizard:
will confirm it's possible to some extent...

my vibrant...in the car...connected to 1ma power when I have navigation running and the screen at full brightness..wifi off..bluetooth on...I will lose charge even when plugged in.

if I reduce the screen to half brightness...or stop nav..that doesn't happen...but I think the phone is definitely able overwhelm a 1ma charger.

and if the gps gets into one of those crazy states...there for some odd reasons the system processes just start running like crazy...I could see that happening, even if you don' think you're using your gps.

btw..still on cm7...but while the gps is now semi reliable for me...I still have to watch out after i intentionally or some program like google + app starts using it...and it fails...leaving the OS going crazy and draining my battery.
[Vibrant Android Development] GODCYPH:
Standard Samsung 1500maH battery...

When I first flashed this, I was getting TERRIBLE battery life as well. I mean, I could sit there and watch the numbers going down... THAT BAD. So I feel your pain. I always (ok mostly) flash new roms with a full battery, negating, or so I thought, the need to calibrate. I finally gave up and started the calibration last night, around 1am. here are my results...

A couple notes... I am currently running oc 1300mhz using SmartassV2 governor. I have force GPU acceleration off because one of my apps just gets all funky when it's on (can produce ss, if anyone is interested). I have HSDPA/HSUPA OFF, because I originally thought that was what was causing the battery drain. It ISN"T.
[Vibrant Android Development] zhuzf:
Great! I've been on 6.5 for couple hours. Smoothest and no fc. I like this rom more than any cm7 or miui roms.

The only obs to be a daily driver is the gps issue. Wish it can be solved!

And a question about the T9 dialer, why removed? Could you bring it back in V7?
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Uploading v7. Main upgraded features:

- Working GPS. Use faster fix and set to China if you dont get locks.

- Smoother & supercharged experience.

- Integrated new RAM management tweaks and performance optimization. No need to flash any other zip to boost performance!

- New Optimized Bootanimation. Feel the difference.

- Annex's update on framework and launcher.

- Quadrant Score > Max obtained by me 2528.

- No nasty gpsd service/process running in background to consume your battery (as it was in v6.5)

- Added a new App called SysControl NB to control all running tasks!! Please explore it.

- Added NB AngryGPS and GPS LbsMode Test.

[Vibrant Android Development] GODCYPH:
Of course, all I did was search the thread, all of the information I'm about to post is already contained in the thread...

I downloaded an app called BatteryCalibration by NeMa ( https://market.android.com/details?...yLDEsImNvbS5uZW1hLmJhdHRlcnljYWxpYnJhdGlvbiJd ). Then, I followed the instructions in the app. That's it! If you have root (which I'm sure everyone here does), you don't even have to wipe stats from CWM.
[Vibrant Android Development] PowSniffer0110:
Whats wrong with you?! Have you no eyes nor ears to hear or see the difference in Voodoo Color/Sound?? Blaspheme! :rolleyes:

K you guys think Im dumb? I know all of this. The dude didnt need to be flamed for asking about Voodoo, been spoken of, doesnt mean its not good and the renob has to ask what is wrong with a person for asking about Voodoo. If he can implement it and keep the setting to stick, AWESOME. Keep sound for now at least; its compatible. Color needs some work. I'd never think he'd change something for me hahahah. I wasnt even the one asking.. I asked if the man was so unintelligent that he cant notice why its a blessing.
